Dining room policy about ordering multiple entrees at the same time is likely an effort to reduce food waste onboard. Too many people having multiple delivered and wasting some of the food. This makes a lot of sense to me.
You mentioned you had a more detailed food review of the places you dined. I can't find that video. Can you give me a link to it? I'm particularly interested in the pier 7 food items... hits and misses. I'm disappointed there are not more specialty dining on this massive ship. The supper club is ridiculously priced in my opinion and I prefer restaurants with more choices on the menu. While Royals food is not terrible, I do think it's their weakest link. I wouldn't mind paying a little more for their cruises if the food was more elevated. We typically purchase UDP when we sail on oasis class ships. Our upcoming icon is no different. Did you mention there will be a second stage show production in the works?? So excited about this ship and you did a TERRIFIC job with your review in this video.
Thanks, for watching. The food review is here th-cam.com/video/MrQ3knnx9pk/w-d-xo.html. The second theater show is Showband, and Aqua Theater has a second show debuting later this year, Pirates Vs. Mermaids. When is your Icon sailing?
It too big of a ship for me. Also, there are children on board. I prefer Viking as it’s adults only and the capacity is much smaller than a mega ship. Also the focus is educating you on the places you’ll visit. No zip lines, rope courses or water parks. They also show feature films and nature films plus lectures from experts on the locations, animals, geography, geology of the places you’ll visit. All the food areas are included with the exception of the Chefs Table which is a 15 person venue where the diners help the chef prepare the food. Wine and beer are included in the price. If you want spirits or higher class wines there is an up charge.
DB another great review. Icon seems very cool. And I wish to sail on her, but I think I like the Oasis Class Boardwalk w/ Playmakers and Aqua Show in the rear. And the Solarium in the Front layout, better.
Thanks for watching. Honestly, having the Aqua Theater at the top in the front on Icon of the Seas was a welcomed change. But we can see your point. Overall, you can't go wrong with either class of ship. When is your next RCI cruise?
I'm on Icon now. I don't think it's at full capacity yet, and every pool is packed and most whirlpools are full of children. This video is mainly showing empty spaces, but for us it is way too crowded and loud, and we're often wandering around looking for somewhere to relax- the only quieter, uncrowded spaces are inside.
They are espresso martinis with baileys, which is lighter than the typical ones. Feel free to let us know if you have any other questions. Happy sailing.
@@Eatsleepcruise1 never been on mega… just one to Bahamas. I’m sure there are cruises tailored to everyone’s fancy… I could care less about water slides etc… I’m more for the love boat life style… good food, meeting interesting people, classy entertainment…. Interesting ports of call….
Just got off the Icon…..yes, it’s broken and we weren’t able to go to our schedule ports. But besides that, this was the worst cruise ship ever. The pools are TINY, the shows were nonexistent, there were no comedy shows, the deck layouts were horrible…..I would never recommend Icon. This is unfortunate because our family LOVED Wonder of the Sea
Might be a good idea to get a professional commenter, I’m sure it would enhance the video, probably just me though as I only lasted the first couple of minutes. 🤪
Good video. It would be nice if a few of the influences would go on an actual Icon Cruise as a preview Is never a good example of an actual cruise. Also, Disney has the first swim up bar. Not this ship.

Great walkthrough video. Thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it! Are you sailing on Icon soon?
This video is so helpful and I love the detail you all gave. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful! When are you sailing in Icon?
TH-cam been showing me a lot of these icon videos this week
It is a brand new ship so there is a lot of content out there.
I'm Diamond plus with RCCL, and would love to try the Icon. However, the outrageously high fares make that impossible for a person of my income.
Yes, the cruise fares are quite high. What’s your favorite RCI ship?
@@Eatsleepcruise1 Wonder of the Seas
One Tsumni, and it's gone.
Thank you for the good work 🙏.
Our pleasure. Are you sailing on Icon?
@@Eatsleepcruise1 👍 Spring break. I'm excited 😁 Thank you
❤ so proud of you, you are strong woman. Continue being you and striving for yourself🎉🎉
Thankyou service NSW

I've heard the food on RCCL isn't all that great unfortunately, at least compared to the quality it was pre-COVID
Thanks for sharing this video. I was curious if being on Deck 14 made you deal with a lot of noise coming from deck 15? Thanks
Glad you found the video helpful. We heard no noise on Deck 14 on either side of the ship. Are you sailing on Icon of the Seas anytime soon?
Yes, we sail on the Icon leaving 11/23/24. We will be celebrating our anniversary and Thanksgiving on the ship. Can’t wait!

@@Eatsleepcruise1 I'm excited to see it. But the Boardwalk and that Openess is Very Special.
Not for me! It looks like a floating mall, amusement park and hotel packed with people!
With 7 pools, is it possible to choose the least crowded without having to walk around to visit each one?
Sure, or you can choose a different one each day. Except for the Grove pool, all pools are open to all cruisers. Plan on cruising on Icon soon?
I'm on Icon now. I don't think it's at full capacity yet, and every pool is packed and most whirlpools are full of children. This video is mainly showing empty spaces, but for us it is way too crowded and loud, and we're often wandering around looking for somewhere to relax- the only quieter, uncrowded spaces are inside.
Hey DB is humid with the Aqua Dome being inside ???
No humidity whatsoever. It was very comfortable during the day and night. Happy cruising.
So you took one video and made it into TWO (or more?) with two different titles.
No. But nice try.
What is the drink posted at 16:35? You mention espresso martini but this looks a lot lighter. Thank you.
They are espresso martinis with baileys, which is lighter than the typical ones. Feel free to let us know if you have any other questions. Happy sailing.
@@Eatsleepcruise1 Thank you! I'm definitely going to try it with Bailey's. Thank you for your videos!! My husband and I have enjoyed watching them.
You can’t do a proper rating unless the sailing is at capacity.
We will happily do another review if you want to pay for the cruise.
An empty cruise ship wouldn’t be any fun either
Very true. Do you typically sail on mega ships?
@@Eatsleepcruise1 never been on mega… just one to Bahamas.
I’m sure there are cruises tailored to everyone’s fancy… I could care less about water slides etc… I’m more for the love boat life style… good food, meeting interesting people, classy entertainment…. Interesting ports of call….

Did they not do the aqua show and main theater show? Wizard of Oz wasn’t playing.
She tastes like moon. Very good for Ukraine soldiers
Arent all your reviews honest?😂😂😂😂
Yes.
